Nelson was a little sneaky with the right this time. Feinted with the body one time, set it up with an upper cut another time. The last punch was super easy. Just wait for Nog's jab to miss and then a right to the dome.
I have nothing to say about the Guida fight. It was like trying to read a book in Cyrillic.
Don't forget Glory 15 is on tonight. The Glory cards have been insanely entertaining lately, the striking is just incredible and there's some big names on the card, Tyrone Spong, Nathan Corbett and Gokhan Saki.

Dana: "Don't bring me into this, you fucking goof.
There is a reason the UFC doesn’t hold fucking fights in Wyoming, and it’s not because of my fear of the Yellowstone Super Volcano or my fear of the movie Brokeback Mountain. MMA is the safest sport in the whole fucking world. Do you wanna know what sport is more dangerous than MMA? Dressage. Do you know how many people are killed every year doing that fucking silly horse dancing? Neither do I, but it’s probably a fucking lot."
Joe Rogan: “Dude, dressage is fucking crazy!”
Dana: “Joe, get the fuck out of here. I’m talking about how fucking safe MMA is.”
Joe: “I’m serious. Horses are fucking huge and shit. They used to run around the plains and shit, fighting each other and fucking girl horses. Have you ever watched horses fighting? It’s crazy. They’re biting each other and throwing headbutts.”
Eddie: “Horses just need to go back to using the guard. Maia used to pull guard and at least he had that third opti-”
Joe: "Eddie, you’ve been smoking way too much fucking weed, bro… But like I was saying, horses are fucking crazy. And like thousands of years ago, some crazy ass caveman motherfucker saw a horse and was like, “I’m gonna catch that bitch and make it carry me around,” and he did. Do you know how insane that is? And now we ride them around and make them do some silly dancing and shit. It’s fucking crazy."
Dana: “That’s what I was saying Joe. Horses are way more fucking dangerous than MMA.”
Overeem: “I disagree.”

Tyrone Spong just pulled an Anderson Silva jelly leg tonight at Glory against Gohan Saki.
I wonder if people are training those checks more now.
It's not like it's hard to do, so why not? I think someone here talked about Spong using the same type of leg kick Anderson did against Weidman in the second fight? Something about it allowing the kicker to get back to boxing stance quicker? If that is the case, it's time to retire that technique.

That was me yeah. The problem isn't actually so much with the kick but it's more a problem with the setup usually. I was really watching Jose Aldo's last fight closely to see what he did differently and he only threw a leg kick once without setting it up with the hands. Anderson Silva's leg broke throwing an inside leg kick that was checked very very well. There's very little point to putting that much heat on an inside leg kick, they don't do a whole lot of damage and there's high risk for that sort of check ((IMO.))
Now Tyrone Spong's leg break was an outside leg kick that was checked very well but same kind of kick, and this is part of the risk of it. Bas Rutten talked about it a good bit. In Glory you see a lot more single kicks thrown with no setup just because the guys are so fast but same as MMA, if it's not set up with the hands there's more risk.
It's kinda crazy that after talking about that kick the example that had been being used of someone else who didn't turn the hip over completely and was hitting more with the side of the shin bone was Spong and this happens. I'll say this, I definitely try to turn the hip all the way over, and while these guys have had great success with that kick it definitely looks like it may have caught up to them.

Hmm, I don't actually mind the British commentator. He's more knowledgeable than Annik at least.
I really quite liked the duo, this was the first time I'd heard them live. Bow-tie man knows what he's talking about, he was pointing out things that were actually interesting. He won me over when he said the D'arce was a common counter to the under-hook get up from under side control. A lot of people watching wouldn't have known what half those terms meant.
haahahhahah oh man I love chael
but can we talk? but sometimes i'd like to say hello
chael time is the best time
also wand and his coaches are such pieces of shit

I didn't buy it and picked Nijem. He's a little uneven as a fighter and has a suspect chin, but he always tries to finish.
Nijem calls out the world and is a bit crazed in the interview. Haha.
He's fun to watch.
Edit: And Howard hurts LaFlare and gets a takedown! Woo.
Oh god, Howard is screaming after that nut shot.

Lots of awesome grappling and scrambling in this fight. Should be getting fight of the night so at least they'll both get paid.

Fantastic sportsmanship on the part of Saki. See a lot of this in Glory I've noticed.

...the Wandy/Sonnen fight is going pretty much exactly how I think most of us picture it.
Wandy wiffs a punch, Sonnen takes him down, 3 rounds and done.
I mean, Sonnen slips a punch and takes Silva down easily in his flip flops and jeans. I don't see how this fight is going to be competitive at all.

Michael Bisping doesn't have a single win in the UFC over a currently active fighter. All his losses are from currently active fighters.
Go ahead and look it up. I was shocked, too.
No, Dan Miller and Alan Belcher do not count as active fighters.
It's in the UFC contract.
Man is that a Wand coach sucker punching Sonnen when everyone is trying to break it up?
but can we talk? but sometimes i'd like to say hello
